Christmas Snowflake Velvet Curtains 52 x 84 Inch, Red Pair
What we like
It puts a holiday print on soft velvet with grommets, so it opens and closes easily every day, and it gives an honest 85% light-blocking figure instead of claiming blackout.
Worth knowing
The pair is 104 inches wide in total, which looks full only on windows up to about 49 inches across, and the grommet size isn’t given.

Why we picked it
Most Christmas curtains are thin printed polyester, fine for a party and then back in the box. These are different. The red snowflake and star pattern is printed on velvet, which has a deeper color and a richer, heavier drape than flat polyester, so they look more like real curtains that happen to be festive. Snowflakes also stretch the season: they suit December just as well as the cold months after it, so you don’t have to take them down on December 26.
The grommet top is a practical plus. Grommets are metal rings punched into the top of the panel, and they slide along the rod easily, so these are comfortable to open in the morning and close at night every day. Rod pocket curtains, which have a fabric sleeve the rod passes through, grip the rod and are better left in place.
The light figure is worth reading properly. The listing says these block about 85% of light, which is honest and specific. It also means roughly 15% still gets through, so they’ll dim a room nicely but won’t make it dark enough for a daytime nap or a nightshift worker. If you need true blackout, you’d need a blackout liner behind them.
Size is the other thing to check. Each panel is 52 inches wide, so the pair gives you 104 inches of fabric. Curtains look full with one and a half to two times as much fabric as rod, which suits a rod of about 52 to 69 inches. With the rod running about 10 inches past each side of the window, that works for windows roughly 32 to 49 inches wide. For a wider window, you’d want two pairs. At 84 inches long, the panels reach the floor when the top of the rod sits about 84 to 85 inches up, which is roughly a foot below a standard 8 foot ceiling.
A few things are missing. The listing doesn’t say how many grommets each panel has or how wide they are inside, so you can’t confirm your rod will fit through them. It calls the curtains “thermal insulated” and “super heavy” without any rating, lining detail or fabric weight to back that up, and “no fading” is a general promise rather than a tested one. The care instructions are clear, though: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low.

The honest take
What we like
- Holiday print on velvet, with a richer look than typical printed polyester
- Snowflake pattern works through winter, not just Christmas week
- Grommets slide easily for daily opening and closing
- Honest 85% light-blocking figure rather than a blackout claim
Worth knowing
- 104 in total width only looks full on windows up to about 49 in across
- Grommet count and size not given, so rod fit can’t be checked
- Thermal and “super heavy” claims have no rating or weight behind them
- About 15% of light still gets through
